This really isn’t surprising, as more and more we’re being discouraged from visiting our GPs. Things I would have gone to see my doctor about 20 years ago I know wouldn’t even think about bothering, because it’s such a palava to even get an appointment. So I just hope for the best and hope it will pass. Sometimes that might mean something that could have been prevented isn’t prevented.
And then of course there’s diet. But let’s not lose sight of the state of healthcare.
Sounds like they have caught him; 50s, male. They’re asking people not to speculate, so I won’t. But obvious thoughts are in my head.
That doesn’t make a huge amount of difference, especially with young people. One would never assume that a young person from south Wales doesn’t speak Welsh. They quite likely do.
Actress Mali Ann Rees said inclusivity was key to encouraging more people to speak Welsh, with “no excuse” for unconscious bias.
There’s a huge irony here for me. I called out such unconscious bias once, which was actually perpetrated by a black Welsh speaker against an Asian from South Wales. She called me a racist for calling her out! And Reddit being Reddit, she was then upvoted and I down
I won’t forget that. It still intensely annoys me. So thanks Mali for taking my side here.
Yes, he does. 69.35%, with just 1.06% left to be counted.
I feel I should be reading something into that picture. Is it code for something? /s
I’d be happy with just one leche tbf.
Congratulations on managing to offend the Iranian, Israeli and USian regimes all at the same time. Best laugh I’ve had for weeks 😂
Yes that makes a lot of sense. Make it increasingly difficult not to go green, through the tax system, rather than directly paying them to go green.
Having just returned from playing the piano for the morning Easter service, something tells me I shouldn’t be laughing at this.
But I can’t help it 😂
On which subject, I (here in Cymru, not part of the Palantir NHS England problem) received a letter in the post this week asking if I wanted to take part in a large survey for the NHS, which would involve giving a blood sample for analysis. The address given was in England, and so I’m guessing it’s a joint project with NHS Cymru and England.
I have to say that I am not intending to reply to the letter because of Palantir; it feels horribly like a data gathering exercise funded by them.
Does anyone else know about this?
Great. But there’s still something fundamentally wrong with public money going to support private companies in this way. I fear this sends the message “don’t go green until the government throws you a load of money to incentivise it”. By all means, support the infrastructure (and take the income from it for the public purse), but make the shareholders pay for going green. Or just nationalise if they don’t want to.
Aldi House Blend whole beans are surprisingly good.
Lidl Italian Blend is also good for when I want a change.
Data are plural, as my PhD supervisor always used to say.
It still feels wrong to me when it’s used in the singular, especially in formal communication.
That’s exactly my criteria too. Bonus for the app being available natively on platforms such as Sailfish or Ubuntu phone.
I feel the orange man-baby’s manhood has just been insulted.
It’s difficult to imagine any worse owner than the outgoing one. Hopefully it will step back from the fascist brink now, though Springer are hardly likely to be progressive.
Not for him, no. But it’s deeply concerning that this should have been allowed to happen. How many attacks never make the news, because the victim is not so infamous? And might some of these have been wrongly convicted?
Whilst this particular article is new, the story has been out now from other sources for a while. And it looks like the US has shot itself in the foot here, because that’s been cited as at least part of the motivation for the EU looking to become independent in banking and technology from the US.
Well, good. It should have happened a long time ago; better still the situation should never have been allowed to arise.
Yes agreed. I had effects after COVID first round for a good 18 months. I still sometimes wonder if it’s really gone, if I ever truly went back to baseline or just accepted a new slightly different reality. I’m sure others are like me.
